Really? Because CJA and SA both went to Worlds (a real competition) and both teams hit. CJA got 12th and SA got 19th or 20th. Hmmmm, I think we know who is better.
i forgot to mention you both don't have great tosses. Kinda ugly. CJA does 5 stunts, so that gets the upper hand. 4 stunts on Sr 5 is weak at this stage in the game. That's all I can critique. Neither team is glaringly better than the other, so stop bickering.
I agree with the stop bickering part of your response. I also agree that CJA is better. What I don't agree with is the negativity of some of your critique of both squads (overrating yourselves, ugly tosses, etc.) Where are you from? Another world ranked team? Or are you a well-respected judge from a well-respected cheer company?
I cheered in Arizona and live in New Hampshire (land of Celebrity, lol). Graduated a while back, and I think I could be a decent judge, although I haven't tried yet... I meant overrating yourselves compared to each other. I wasn't saying in general that you're overrated. That would be mean. I would never say that. I'm not a mean person. lol. Most videos I watch that I like I seriously say "great job" and move on, but you guys were fighting so much, I decided to give an honest critique.
Thanks suns3205 for your honest critique. If you read the posts..no one was comparing Star to CJA except for loveAScheer & DaGuyy3knoe they need to love on their teams & stop hatin on Star.
CJA has 5 standing handsprings fulls. SA has like 6 or 7. Not much of a difference. Both teams seem pretty evenly matched. This is more skill than CJA had last year, and SA doesn't have all the difficulty they used to. This honestly looks like a brand new team from last year's video.
Stop picking on each other. It sounds lame. You're pretty evenly matched teams. There are some things that one team does better than the other, but you guys both overrate yourselves compared to each other.
I'm not from either team and unbiased. CJA is better this year. SA was better last year. SA has more specialty tumbling. But overall, it looks like 10-12 girls per team can do fulls-- so you're even there. Honestly, I think you're stunting is pretty even, too. Full ups to extensions are not really impressive in Level 5. Both dances are weak. SA's choreography is better. CJA's energy is better...
Yeah Stars deff. would have gotten Eaten Alive at RI.. EE had like what 8 doubles and for standing had 4 double bhs whip doubles. They were amazing and beat cja by .01! when cja had a huge 10 point deduction for a tumbling bust on a double.. and btw. stars may out beat cja for tumbling but not in anything else. and you cant even say tumbling. maybe more standing but cja had more running fulls and only 1 less double.
Star may not have the best tumbling ability but out tumbles CJA without a doubt. And just for the record fullups to an extension are a level THREE skill....so why even bother putting that in a level 5 routine? CJA has improved tremendously but Star still has the upper hand
Star is a sloppy mess in this video, and just for the record, they would have gotten eaten alive at Athletic Championships this past weekend if this is the best they can bring. CJA was .01 behind East Elite and almost got a paid bid. Who cares that Star have better tumbling? That's about it.
Who ever said this was the best they could bring? I've only seen them twice this year and it was fairly early in the season. They probably would have faired quite well in RI if they would have went. I'm not going to deny they weren't as clean as they could have been, but they definately have a higher skill level all around. Cleanliness with minimum skill will only get you so far. CJA has improved greatly but still has more work for them. Don't get me wrong, Star could use work too.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but CJA got 18th in Worlds last year and Star got 24th. Now, Star has less skill and CJA basically doubled theirs but you're saying they don't compare. I'm not understanding the logic, but again, opinion is opinion.
Since you brought this up....Good for CJA last year!! They did very well especially for their 1st year at worlds...but you honestly cannot compare their routine last year to most any of the other routines in their division. They hit clean with energy but was not near the difficulty of Stars or others....Stars did not hit clean, but again had wayyyyy more difficulty.
Actually, I did just look again. Still don't know how they beat CJA even though they had a major fall and some other probs of their own. 4 stunt groups with sloppy technique and poor flyer flexibility, incomplete doubles, a last pass that almosts busts, and a build that almost fell on the right side. I'm a bit confused myself. Cute dance though.
Lol? I'm not sure where you're getting humor. CJA had a fall, their cheer formation was off, and they lacked energy overall. Star had more creative motions and more specialty passes, but that's it.
How did they possibally beat cja? sorry not being all cja is the best but sa threw what 7 fulls in open tumbling? and no full ups.. or at least won grand champs?
Stars Is Sooo much better then CJA. Stars has better tumbling,jumps, and there dance is amazing. CJA is good but not as good as Stars.
